41 a. The Result of Pre-test
The purpose of administering pre-test is to know the students ability in reading comprehensionability before treatment.The result of pre-test can be identified as follows.

Based on the table above, the researcher measured the class interval.
R = H − L
= 80 − 40
= 40
K = 1 + 3,3 log n
= 1 + 3,3 log (1,52)
= 6,016

L = The lowest score
K = The number of interval class P = The length of interval class n = Total of participant
After knowing the class interval, the data was put on the table of frequency distribution, as follow:
Table 8
The Frequency Distribution of Students’ score in Pre-test Class Interval Frequency Percentage %
75- 81 6 20%
68-74 5 16,67%

54-60 10 33,3%
47-53 6 26 %
40-46 3 10%
Total 30 100 %
Based on the table frequency districution and graphic above, it can be inferred that 30 students as the research sample can be devided:
1) For the class interval of 40-46, there were 3 students or 10%
2) For the class interval of 47-53, there were 6 students or 26 % 3) For the class interval of 54-60, there were 10 students or 33,3%
4) For the class interval of 61-67, there were 0 students or 0%
5) For the class interval of 68-74, there were 5 students or 16,67%
6) For the class interval of 75- 81, there were 6 students or 20%

The Graphic of Frequency Distribution of the Students’ Score in Pre–test
The graphic above show that most of students got lower grade than 70, they were 19 students. The criteria of students who are successful in mastering the material are the students who get completeness standard (CM) that is 70.The average grade of pre-test is 56,06. It shows that the result of the students’ reading comprehension ability in pretest was not satisfactory.
It became one of the reasons why writer used Focused cloze strategy as an alternative to teach English especially in reading comprehension ability. It was done to know the influence of the strategytoward students’ reading comprehension ability.
b. The Result of Post-test
After knowing the pre-test result of the students’ reading comprehension ability, it might be assumed that the students got poor

score. Therefore, the writer gave treatment by usingFocused cloze Strategy. The writer explained about what the Focused cloze Strategyis, and also explained about the procedure of Focused cloze Strategy in learning process. So the students were curious and interested to use this strategy in learning reading.
In this process the writer saw that the students were interested and they motivated to study reading more by using this strategy, at the end, the writer gave post-test to know their reading comprehension ability after they were given the instruction (treatment).
To measure the influence of Focused cloze Strategy, the writer tested the students to read the text that they have gotten in pairs. The result of the post-test can be described as follows:

After knowing the class interval, the data was put on the table of frequency distribution, as follow:

Based on the table frequency districution and graphic above, it can be inferred that 22 students as the research sample can be devided:
1) For the class interval of 50-56, there were 5 students or 16,67%

6) For the class interval of 85-91, there were 4 students or 13,33%
Figure 2
The Graphic of Frequency Distribution of the Students’ Score in Post–test
The graphic above show that the result of post-test can fulfill
completeness standard (CM) at SMP N 1 Pekalongan (70) where there were 18 students who can get grade 70 and more than 70. The result of post – test shows that average of post–test is 62,73. It shows that their average of pre-test grades was increased so; it means that the treatment through Focused cloze Strategy was successful on students reading comprehension ability.
